pathetic. blizzard/activision sacrificed too many things that could have made d3 an awesome game worthy of its predecessors, just to squeeze out some more profit by a console port.

I see now that I didn't pay close enough attention to the development of D3, otherwise this would have been obvious to me.

Dammit. Fool me once...

The game itself is more suited for the console community. ...


....casual shits.

My first console a-rpg was "Champions of Norrath" on the ps2. I enjoyed it a lot. I couldn't imagine if it had actually had a decent PvP/multiplayer system (that wasn't a hassle to set up). This game could see moderate success on console tbh. You definitely won't have as many people upset (myself included) over the game itself.

I will for sure not play it, though.

D3 on console isn't intended for pc gamers. It's for the folks that went console this last generation and have terrible gaming pcs or laptops.

Though the whole delaying TDM until try found a good console acceptable mode makes more sense now.

I can't see them making offline modes in any of their games ever again. They can't stand not having control and information over their playerbase.

Well, on a second thought, "reasonable" and "console player" seemed to be two irrelevant words. People are paying money to the same game over and over every year (COD etc.)

In the meantime, I cannot agree more about how good Path of Exile is. Much more fun to play with tons of strategic decisions involved - both in terms of character development and game play.


You say this despite the fact that the Skill Gem System and Passive Tree of PoE are clearly borrowed from two console titles.

This explains a lot actually. D3 is a bad joke compared to D2, and now we know it's not just because of bad game designers, but because of the targeted audience and console.

This shouldn't come as a surprise. Blizzard has been hiring console developers for quite a while. Diablo 3 was designed with consoles in mind, it's quite obvious when you think about it. The casual gameplay, the UI, the skill system, the controls, the achievements, they even went out of their way to make Battle.net the least sociable place possible so a keyboard to chat isn't a necessity. Console players will probably be playing on the same servers as PC players because noone talks anyway and skillwise a controller isn't a large handicap in this game.

I disagree with the path they took with Diablo 3's design, and with the direction Blizzard as a whole seems to be heading. But the game should work perfectly fine with a controller, so it's certainly understandable from a business perspective.

Incoming sc2 console version with auto splits during battle. Or maybe they will add formations like in Age of Empires. Seriously though, I can't believe how good that guy is with a gamepad, it's hard to even tell he is using one. I'd like to see him play SCBW with a gamepad.

I don't even see Diablo ever being remotely popular on consoles. How much profit can it make? Especially after all the negative press so far.

I would be amazed if it actually sold well after all the shitstorm the PC version created. Explains why it was so fucking bad though. I can't believe they would really think this will sell....if it does then I give up on gaming, holy shit.

You assume that the average market for D3 on consoles would know about PC d3 players' gripes. Oh it'll sell, you can count on it. They have been. Why do you think we've been playing on a console version of d3 all along?

I feel like this thread so effectively explains what this news feels like for PC players:
http://www.reddit.com/r/Diablo/comments/18xsam/confidence_and_optimism_in_diablo_3_gone/

Me, I suppose already lost confidence and optimism for d3 long ago.

I still give Blizz the benefit of the doubt though and assume they truly believed they could make a great game while still limiting it to console-friendly constraints, rather than knowingly produce an inferior product with the intent of selling more copies. At least initially, before it became too late I wish they could have found a way to just have the two games be separate and have different features/capabilities, but apparently they could not, or chose not.

I lost confidence and optimism in Blizzard entirely. I grew up playing Blizzard games. Diablo 1 and 2, SCBW, War3 tft, and to some extent, WoW (up to and including TBC, but they lost me after that), but it seems like after the Activision merger this company has just gone straight off the deep end. I've watched Blizz go from being a relatively small company that pushed out revolutionary and brilliant games with an obvious passion for art, to now a completely different monster seemingly driven only by greed and control.

Their design philosophy has clearly changed completely away from making great games, and instead they focus only on making profit. Great games = great profit, maybe they should think back to how they got so huge in the first place.

Blizzard this generation is pissing off a very wide number of their fans : ) Can't see them still being revered in 5-10y at this rate.
Either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.
